I enjoyed working with you on this <br />endeavor and am extremely gratified we secured a federal <br />investment in this meritorious venture. <br />In these times of declining federal resources, Congress is <br />frequently required to take difficult steps to meet the numerous <br />funding requests presented each year. During my tenure as <br />Chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee, it was necessary <br />to craft several legislative packages to rescind unobligated <br />federal funds. I fully expect the practice of re-allocating <br />unspent funds to continue in the future. Consequently, I <br />strongly urge you to obligate these funds expeditiously and avoid <br />the potential threat of losing them to a rescission by the next <br />Congress. <br />Once again congratulations on receiving funding for this <br />important project. <br />With kind regards. <br />Sincerely, <br />"l___--- <br />Mark O.
